Common Bumblebee and Purple Aster

If you love an image (whether it's yours or someone else's) and want to make sure others get a chance to see it, you can “feature” it by choosing the “Spotlight” button.

When an image is Spotlighted, it receives enhanced visibility in premium spots throughout the site. Spotlighted images are rotated through these higher-visibility positions to ensure the best opportunity for the images to be seen by JPG users.

If you see a great photo that would make a perfect entry for one of our
Shoot Out photo contests but it was uploaded by another user, now you can
enter that photo in the contest and, if it wins, you get to share in the
contest winnings.

Like a photo editor, if you've got an eye for great work,
find it and submit it to a contest. If it wins, since you staked the entry
fee, you'll take home part of the prize (the rest, of course, goes to the member
who shot the image).

Pleasant words are as an honeycomb sweet to the soul, and health to the bone...
Proverbs 16:24
----------------------------

If the common bumble bee
Robust and healthy
Got paid by the hour
For its labor
Pollinating each flower
It would be wealthy...
As far as I could see
The bumble bee
Was a bit faster
Than its neighbor
The honey bee
Smaller in stature
Sipping on an Aster.
Poetry by me AJP

I don't know how valid my observations are between who works faster, the honey bee or the common bumblebee...except I noticed it was a little easier to capture the honey bee on camera than it was the common bumble bee who flitted around from one flower to the next, sometimes out of range, playing hide and go seek with my camera......I finally got lucky and captured one when it was still:)
